CHICAGO, July 25, 2018 – First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: FR), a leading fully integrated owner, operator and developer of industrial real estate, today announced results for the second quarter of 2018. Diluted net income available to common stockholders per share (EPS) was $0.36 in the second quarter, compared to $0.32 a year ago.
First Industrial’s second quarter FFO was $0.39 per share/unit on a diluted basis, compared to $0.38 per share/unit a year ago. Second quarter results reflect approximately $0.01 per share impact related to the temporary dilution from the Company’s 4.8 million share equity offering completed in early May and second quarter property sales.
“Our team delivered another strong quarter across all aspects of our business as we sustained occupancy at high levels and continued to drive rents and grow same-store NOI,” said Peter E. Baccile, First Industrial’s president and chief executive officer. “Tenants continue to actively seek logistics real estate as their supply chains grow and evolve and we are excited about the investments we are making to meet this demand.”

In the third quarter to date, the Company:

In the second quarter, the Company:

“Through our platform, we continue to identify and execute on opportunities to enhance our portfolio to drive cash flow growth while delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns on our capital,” said Johannson Yap, chief investment officer. “We are pleased to have leased 62% of The Ranch by First Industrial shortly after completion, and we look forward to serving additional demand with our high-quality development projects across several key markets.”
Capital Markets
In the second quarter, the Company:
| • | Raised approximately $146 million of net proceeds via an underwritten offering of 4.8 million common shares. |
| • | Received an upgrade of its senior unsecured debt ratings to ‘Baa2’ from Moody’s Investors Service in June. |
“Our equity offering in May provided us with additional capital flexibility to fund current investments, planned starts in the third quarter, and future growth opportunities within our pipeline,” said Scott Musil, chief financial officer. “Our balance sheet is well-positioned to support our long-term growth, and we were pleased to receive an upgrade from Moody’s in June that recognized our capital strength.”
Outlook for 2018
Mr. Baccile stated, “The leasing markets are active and, with overall supply and demand in equilibrium, we are focused on driving incremental cash flow through rent growth and execution on our developments and value-add acquisitions.”

The following assumptions were used:
| • | Compared to the Company’s prior guidance discussed on the Company’s first quarter earnings call, current guidance reflects approximately $0.03 per share of temporary dilution related to the second quarter equity offering and property sales, offset by $0.01 per share related to early development leasing relative to pro-forma, and $0.01 related to an increase in capitalized interest. |
| • | Average quarter-end in service occupancy of 96.5% to 97.5%. |
| • | Same-store NOI growth on a cash basis before termination fees of 4.5% to 5.5% for the full year. This represents an increase of 50 basis points at the midpoint to 5.0%, reflecting second quarter results. |
< more >
| • | General and administrative expense of approximately $26 million to $27 million. The first quarter severance charge of $1.3 million is excluded from the general and administrative expense guidance range. |
| • | Guidance includes the incremental costs expected in 2018 related to the Company’s developments completed and under construction as of June 30, 2018 plus the four expected third quarter starts. In total, the Company expects to capitalize $0.05 per share of interest related to its development projects in 2018. |
| • | Other than the above, guidance does not include the impact of: |
| • | any other future debt repurchases prior to maturity or future debt issuances, |
| • | any future investments or property sales, |
| • | any future NAREIT-compliant gains or losses, |
| • | any future impairment gains or losses, |
| • | any future gains related to the final settlement of an insurance claim for a damaged facility previously disclosed, or |
| • | any future equity issuances. |
A number of factors could impact our ability to deliver results in line with our assumptions, such as interest rates, the economy, the supply and demand of industrial real estate, the availability and terms of financing to potential acquirers of real estate, the timing and yields for divestment and investment, and numerous other variables. There can be no assurance that First Industrial can achieve such results.

First Industrial will host its quarterly conference call on Thursday, July 26, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. CDT (11:00 a.m. EDT.)

FFO Definition
First Industrial reports FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition to provide a comparative measure to other REITs. NAREIT recommends that REITs define FFO as net income, excluding gains (or losses) from the sale of previously depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, excluding impairments from previously depreciated assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

b) Investors in, and analysts following, the real estate industry utilize funds from operations (“FFO”), net operating income (“NOI”), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), variously defined below, as supplemental performance measures. While we believe net income available to First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.’s common stockholders and participating securities, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate measure, we consider FFO, NOI, adjusted EBITDA and AFFO, given their wide use by, and relevance to investors and analysts, appropriate supplemental performance measures. FFO, reflecting the assumption that real estate asset values rise or fall with market conditions, principally adjusts for the effects of GAAP depreciation and amortization of real estate assets. NOI provides a measure of rental operations, and does not factor in depreciation and amortization and non-property specific expenses such as general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA provides a tool to further evaluate the ability to incur and service debt and to fund dividends and other cash needs. AFFO provides a toolto further evaluate the ability to fund dividends. In addition, FFO, NOI, adjusted EBITDA and AFFO are commonly used in various ratios, pricing multiples/yields and returns and valuation calculations used to measure financial position, performance and value.
As used herein, we calculate FFO to be equal to net income available to First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.’s common stockholders and participating securities, plus depreciation and other amortization of real estate, plus impairment of depreciable real estate, minus gain on sale of depreciable real estate.
NOI is defined as our revenues, minus property expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as NOI, minus general and administrative expenses and the equity in FFO loss from our investment in a joint venture. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, $1,298 of severance expense included in general and administrative expense was not deducted to arrive at adjusted EBITDA.
AFFO is defined as adjusted EBITDA minus GAAP interest expense, minus capitalized interest and overhead, (minus)/plus amortization of debt (premiums)/discounts and hedge costs, minus straight-line rental income, amortization of above (below) market leases and lease inducements, minus provision for income taxes or plus benefit for income taxes, plus restricted stock/unit amortization, minus severance expense and minus non-incremental capital expenditures. Non-incremental capital expenditures refer to building improvements and leasing costs required to maintain current revenues plus tenant improvements amortized back to the tenant over the lease term. Excluded are first generation leasing costs, capital expenditures underwritten at acquisition and development/redevelopment costs.
FFO, NOI, adjusted EBITDA and AFFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the repayment of principal on debt and payment of dividends and distributions. FFO, NOI, adjusted EBITDA and AFFO should not be considered as substitutes for net income available to common stockholders and participating securities (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of results of operations or cash flows (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity. FFO, NOI, adjusted EBITDA and AFFO as currently calculated by us may not be comparable to similarly titled, but variously calculated, measures of other REITs.
In addition, we consider cash-basis same store NOI (“SS NOI”) to be a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. Same store properties include all properties owned prior to January 1, 2017 and held as an in service property through the end of the current reporting period, and developments and redevelopments that were placed in service prior to January 1, 2017 (the “Same Store Pool”). Properties which are at least 75% occupied at acquisition are placed in service, unless we anticipate tenant move-outs within two years of ownership would drop occupancy below 75%. Acquired properties with occupancy greater than 75% at acquisition, but with tenants that we anticipate will move out within two years of ownership, will be placed in service upon the earlier of reaching 90% occupancy or twelve months after move out. Acquisitions that are less than 75% occupied at the date of acquisition, developments and redevelopments are placed in service as they reach the earlier of a) stabilized occupancy (generally defined as 90% occupied), or b) one year subsequent to acquisition or development/redevelopment construction completion.
We define SS NOI as NOI, less NOI of properties not in the Same Store Pool, less the impact of straight-line rent, the amortization of above (below) marketrentand the impact of lease termination fees. We exclude straight-line rent and above (below) market rent in calculating SS NOI because we believe it provides a better measure of actual cash basis rental growth for a year-over-year comparison. In addition, we believe that SS NOI helps the investing public compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate as compared to other companies. While SS NOI is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of real estate investment trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. SS NOI also does not reflect general and administrative expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income tax benefit and expense, gains and losses on retirement of debt, impairment of real estate, sale of real estate, capital expenditures and leasing costs, or trends in development and construction activities that could materially impact our results from operations. Further, our computation of SS NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as they may use different methodologies for calculating SS NOI.
